Anybody else notice that ALL the opposition speakers are male?  Although I'm 
all for truth telling and never forgetting what the white English  did as 
Jamestown grew, I'd say that the rape of black enslaved women on  plantations 
might be something an "opposition" would underline. And I have no  solid idea, 
beyond Pocahontas and others in the first decades of the 17th  century, about the 
Native American women....in what ways their fate was  "gendered" - or not.
